Anthem 5K Fitness Classic

Well we did it, we finished the 5K again this year. Mike did good running in 25minutes, Angela on the other hand just finished the race-- not a good time at all but a huge accomplishment to have finished just 8wks after having Mathus and having gotten in just one run since her pregnancy started and weighing 20lbs more than she did when she ran it last year. The race was a huge wake up call to the need to get to the gym or out on the road WAY more often and really turn around this whole weight loss journey. Both of us want to be active parents with our kids as they grow up and we know lifestyle changes are necessary and now that we are done having kids it is definitely the time to turn things around! We are on a mission to bring an increased level of health into our household for both our kids and us! Wish us luck not only on this journey to healthy living, weight loss, good eating habits, physically active and mentally healthy too but also on our upcoming race in 2wks our 10K!!!!
